Pastoral Daily Life - Chapter 137
In early March, Xiao Hong and Xiao Feng came back from the northwest. The things over there were almost handled, and the two of them were thinking about their family, so they didn’t stay there too much.
On the way back, the two of them took turns driving. Xiao Wanyuan squatted quietly in the back seat all the way, guarding the various northwest specialties purchased by the two. Among them were more than a dozen boxes of air-dried beef that Xiao Feng had specially bought. Xiao Wan Wan smelled the beef and refused to leave the back seat. After walking for seven or eight hours, the two got off the highway and entered the city. The first thing Xiao Hong saw was the willow trees planted on both sides of the street. It has only been a few days since it rained a few days ago, and the new shoots of the willow tree have grown to finger lengths. The sun is shining, the emerald color is flowing, and the leaves on the tree are simply fresh and make people feel comfortable.
Xiao Hong used to cross half of China, from northwest to north China, all his eyesight was dim in color, and there was a protruding gray. He never thought that Fengcheng had just started the first month, and he was already looking at it. Is it green? He couldn’t believe it. He deliberately left a crack in the window and glanced out. He was sure that it was not his dazzling eyes, but that the willow tree by the road had really sprung out new shoots.
“What’s the matter? Spring comes so early in Fengcheng?” Xiao Hong asked Xiao Feng to look outside.
Xiao Feng has been in Fengcheng for more than ten years, and this is the first time he has encountered such a situation. He simply pulled down the car window and looked into it, not only the willow trees on the roadside, but also on the curbs and in the cracks between the bricks and stones on both sides of the street, as long as the soil was exposed, it was a green color. He shook his head, a little uncertain, “Probably by the sea, the weather is warm again this year.”
Speaking of this year, it is really not too cold, the wind blows on my face, although it is still a little cool, but it is not as painful as it is in winter, but it is obviously much softer. Xiao Hong took a breath, the air outside the window was fresh. In winter, he didn’t think there was much difference between Fengcheng and the northwest. They were both northern and heavy industrial cities, and the winds were similar. But in this comparison, the air in Fengcheng is much stronger than that in the northwest.
Xiao Hong closed the car window with some emotion, “The air outside is good, much stronger than that in the northwest. I heard that a lot of trees were planted in Fengcheng last year, and it seems that greening and environmental protection are still effective.”
There are other people who have the same emotion as Xiao Hong. The changes in the environment are not like other things that cannot be seen, but are clearly placed in front of people. Those who often pay attention to the weather forecast will find that the air pollution index in Fengcheng has been below 50 for a week, and the air quality has reached an excellent standard.
This change also has another impact. According to statistics from several major hospitals in Fengcheng, the number of asthma patients admitted to the hospital in the past week has decreased by 50% compared with the same period last year, which means that Fengcheng has Half of the asthma patients were under control during the spring peak, not because of medication but because of environmental improvements. All these changes are considered by the public as the impact of Fengcheng’s implementation of the new environmental protection policy since last year, and environmental protection has become the hottest topic in Fengcheng for a while.
Xiao Feng and Xiao Hong chatted about the changes in Fengcheng all the way. By the time they got home, it was almost 4 o’clock in the afternoon. The two parked the car at the door of Unit 3 and carried things to the house together. Xiao Wanwan took a sniff and didn’t feel the dark breath, jumped out of the car and raised his head with a sigh of relief. Don’t beware of a walnut falling, it just hit the top of its head.
On the balcony on the second floor, the white kitten licked its paws and meowed twice at Xiao Wanwan.
Xiao million roared angrily, but unfortunately the distance was too far, and the deterrent to the kitten was not enough.
“Xiao Wanwan.” Xiao Hong shouted, preventing him from shouting.
Xiao Hong raised his head and glanced at the cat upstairs, and patted Xiao Wanwan’s head soothingly. He didn’t know what was going on, it seemed that he suddenly understood the meaning of Xiao Wanmen’s cry when he returned to the northwest this time. At first, Xiao Hong always thought it was his illusion, but after a while, Xiao Hong felt that something was wrong, it was not an illusion, he really understood Xiao Wan’s voice.
Xiao Hong didn’t hide this from Xiao Feng, and Xiao Feng didn’t take it seriously. When he was at home, he saw Lu Lingxi and Da Hei asking and answering several times, and vaguely guessed that they seemed to be able to communicate. Now that there are Xiao Hong and Xiao Wanyuan, he is not surprised at all. On the other hand, Xiao Hong accepted this fact and found it interesting, and urged Xiao Feng to keep a pet. If you keep it for a long time, maybe you can come to a spiritual connection. Xiao Feng didn’t pay attention to this stubbornness. There was already a lot of darkness in the house, and that was enough.
With Xiao Hong coming forward, the little white cat dare not provoke Xiao Wanwan any more. It bluffed its paws at Xiao Wanbao, turned its head and ran back to the house. Xiao Feng laughed a little when he saw this scene. It wasn’t because he said that the cats and dogs in the community were getting smarter and smarter than the other, and they were about to become elites.
Xiao Hong finished moving things and said a few words with Xiao Feng in the yard before taking Xiao Wanbao away. As soon as Xiao Feng entered the room, Wang Shuxiu looked over, “Where’s eldest brother, don’t you have dinner here at night?”
“Don’t eat, Xiaohua, your health is inconvenient, eldest brother will go back first.”
Xiao Feng explained, Wang Shuxiu didn’t say anything. She watched Xiao Feng sorting out the northwest specialties on the ground, and asked casually, “Why did you buy so many?”
Xiao Feng smiled, “Xiaohua, didn’t you say last time that the air-dried beef in the northwest is delicious, this time I brought some more, and I’ll keep it for you to eat slowly. I won’t go back to my hometown often in the future. , those bought from outside always feel that they are not the same taste.”
Wang Shuxiu was happy when she heard Xiao Feng’s reason, and she said, “When will this be eaten.”
Xiao Feng glanced at her with a smile, “If you can’t finish eating, send some to Yan Yue. I heard from Xiaoxi that Yan Yue also likes to eat this.”
When he mentioned Yan Yue, Wang Shuxiu snorted immediately.
Xiao Feng sighed, the little flower has not yet opened.
After half past six in the evening, Yan Yue took Lu Lingxi back. As soon as Lu Lingxi entered the room, he saw more than a dozen boxes of air-dried beef piled on the ground, and immediately reacted. “Dad is back?”
Xiao Feng stuck his head out of the kitchen and said to Lu Lingxi with a smile, “Xiao Xi, you brought two boxes of beef to Yan Yue to thank him for taking care of his family during this time.”
Lu Lingxi’s eyes lit up when she heard it, but instead of taking it directly, she turned to look at Wang Shuxiu, waiting for her meaning. Wang Shuxiu snorted and waved her hand impatiently, “Come on, don’t delay putting things down and come back to eat.”
Lu Lingxi nodded obediently. Wang Shuxiu saw that he really carried two boxes, and said with a stern face: “No one eats these things at home, you can carry two more boxes.” Lu Lingxi and Xiao Feng are used to her stubborn and soft-hearted look. Lu Lingxi didn’t listen to her, she still only carried two boxes, and said with frowning eyes, “Mom likes beef jerky, save more for mom.”
Although she knew that the little **** was trying to make herself happy, Wang Shuxiu couldn’t help but smile and scolded, “little bastard.”
Every time Wang Shuxiu ends with “little bastard”, it means that she is in a good mood now, Lu Lingxi safely carried two boxes of beef jerky and ran to the next door. Since Yan Yue confessed to his family, he hadn’t been here again. This was the first time. Pushing the door and entering the room, Lu Lingxi put the things on the table and turned to look for Yan Yue.
“Xiaoxi?” Yan Yue heard footsteps and came out of the bedroom to change clothes, and saw Lu Lingxi at a glance. Surprised, he reached out and hugged Lu Lingxi tightly in his arms. “Why did Xiaoxi come here?” Yan Yue asked softly, bowing her head and kissing Lu Lingxi’s forehead.
Lu Lingxi motioned to Yan Yue to look at the boxes on the table in the living room. “This is?” Yan Yue vaguely guessed something, but did not dare to confirm it.
“Dad asked me to bring it.” Lu Lingxi said with a smile while holding Yan Yue’s waist. He thinks this is a good phenomenon. Although Xiao Feng asked him to come over, Wang Shuxiu did not stop him. Does that mean that he can come to Yan Yue as often as before.
Lu Lingxi thought happily, Yan Yue also thought of this, raised his hand and rubbed his hair and asked in a low voice, “Mom is not angry?”
Lu Lingxi shook his head, “Mom asked me to carry two more boxes.”
Yan Yue laughed and deliberately looked left and right, “What about the extra two boxes?”
Lu Lingxi blinked, with a sly expression, “If I really bring four boxes over, and my mother doesn’t say it, she will definitely be unhappy in her heart.”
Yan Yue laughed lightly, looking at Lu Lingxi’s eyes and couldn’t help lowering her head and kissing him. Lu Lingxi was in a hurry to go back, “Mom told me to go back early, she’s still waiting for me to eat.”
“Don’t rush for a while.” Yan Yue held him without letting go, and said softly, “I haven’t held Xiaoxi for a long time.” Since Xiao Feng returned to the northwest, Lu Lingxi was worried about Wang Shuxiu At home alone at night, I never went to the flowerbed for the night. Every time the two were alone together, either in the car or in the store, worrying about the gaze around them, Yan Yue couldn’t do anything, and could only endure the longing for Lu Lingxi. Now that there is a rare chance to be alone, Yan Yue was impulsive and didn’t want to let Lu Lingxi go back.
He gently lowered his head and kissed Lu Lingxi’s lips, grinding it gently. Lu Lingxi was nervous, afraid that Wang Shuxiu would be unhappy that he would go back late, but he was reluctant to leave Yan Yue, so he could not help but open his eyes to see Yan Yue kiss him.
Yan Yue’s eyes were hot and focused, looking at Lu Lingxi like this, his heart was about to melt. He lowered his head to touch Lu Lingxi’s forehead and said, “I’ll find you at night.”
Lu Lingxi’s eyes widened suddenly, and her heart jumped violently. “What if Mom finds out?”
Yan Yue raised his eyebrows and thought seriously: “Knock me out?”
Lu Lingxi imagined this scene and nodded while holding back a smile.
